My .40 Seneca hammer lock mechanism is not working right out of the blue. The hammer will either not lock back at all or stay locked back when it does catch. It will seelf release or the slightest movement, it drops. But its also has started to FTF the first hammer drop, then fire on the second.
I've had the thing apart, cleaned & oiled, inspected & saw nothing noticeable broken or bent. I put it back together & its no better. Any Advice is appreciated.
On a second note, my hammer where the relief slit is, a small piece has broken off & now the relief opening is 1/4" wide. IDK how that did that. I found a cpl on ebay for 99.00. I got an offer to buy one for 75.00. Is that outrageous or am is parts for an ole sidelock gone off the rails too?
